Hard words flung
Like hail from the sky
We're both bleeding badly
Neither knowing why
Wrap our wounds tightly
In a bandage of days
Watch 'em weep and fester
As the peace begin to fray
(chorus)
The restlessness of tides
The phases of the moon
The lonely sound of voices
Singing out of tune
Don't need to read your diary
To know just how it goes
Our fighting's done in silence
The yelling's all for show
We keep grinding on our axes
And picking on them bones
The sorrow burrows deep
Leaves us tattered and alone
The restlessness of tides
The phases of the moon
The lonely sound of voices
Singing out of tune
We both guard our secrets
Not all is what it seems
And we pretend not to notice
The stench of rotted dreams
The restlessness of tides
The phases of the moon
The lonely sound of voices
Singing out of tune
Like hail from the sky
We're both bleeding badly
Neither knowing why
Wrap our wounds tightly
In a bandage of days
Watch 'em weep and fester
As the peace begin to fray
(chorus)
The restlessness of tides
The phases of the moon
The lonely sound of voices
Singing out of tune
Don't need to read your diary
To know just how it goes
Our fighting's done in silence
The yelling's all for show
We keep grinding on our axes
And picking on them bones
The sorrow burrows deep
Leaves us tattered and alone
The restlessness of tides
The phases of the moon
The lonely sound of voices
Singing out of tune
We both guard our secrets
Not all is what it seems
And we pretend not to notice
The stench of rotted dreams
The restlessness of tides
The phases of the moon
The lonely sound of voices
Singing out of tune
